Research direction

Start by reviewing the release contents at https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/arrow/ and determine how this repository manages release artifacts. Clarify which releases count as old and how removal should be automated or documented; done means the agreed old releases are removed without affecting retained releases.
